Chapter 148: Fighting on the Bed (Part 112)

"My beloved consort, please serve tea."The Third Princess nodded slightly to Feng Lingxi, then left."Your Highness, this King heard that the Imperial Dowager Empress had been abducted, so he took adv..."Mother, what is this..."

When Zhang saw her coming, she beckoned to her. Feng Lingxi walked over to her side and looked at the box in her mother's hands, a little puzzled.

"Xier, this is the dowry your mother brought when she married your father. Your father doesn't know about these."

Zhang氏 opened the box and took out the deed to the land property inside. There were also shops, everything. Feng Lingxi looked through it and was a little surprised, "I didn't expect my mother's dowry to be so much back then. Why didn't she give it to father"

Zhang looked at her puzzled expression and coughed lightly. Feng Lingxi hurriedly patted her back to help her breathe, and Zhang said, "These things originally belonged to your father, but not long after my mother married in, your father took in several concubines. My mother has always wanted to take them out, but there has never been a suitable opportunity."

Zhang shi looked at these dowries, her eyes reddened.

After you were born, your father became even colder towards me because it was a girl. He never had a son after that, and then you got a high fever and became foolish. Your father became even more indifferent to me. Your mother, seeing you like this, naturally didn't dare to bring out the dowry for your father anymore.

"Turns out, Mother had plans all along."

If I'm not mistaken, Mother wants to use these dowries to find her a good husband. Even if she is foolish, it won't make her life difficult in the future.

Zhang sighed softly, “These are all yours, Mother can only do so much.”

Feng Lingxi looked at these dowry, "Then when I got married, why didn't my mother bring out these dowries Why give them to me now"

Zhang shi looked at her, "That day I didn't give it to you, it was because I wanted your father to give you more dowry. If he knew I still had this one, with Liu shi's temperament, she would definitely deduct from your dowry. What your mother gives you, no matter when, is yours, and what your father gives, you can only get it at that time."

Feng Lingxi held the box, her heart heavy. The Zhang family had made such elaborate arrangements for her, yet she was unaware that Feng Lingxi was no longer their daughter.

"Xier, these dowry items you keep. Your mother gives them to you, and your mother feels at ease."

Feng Ling Xi responded, "Thank you, Mother. Xi'er will definitely cherish the dowry from her mother."

Zhang patted her back, "Xi'er, the Fourth Prince is good to you. Mother can see it too. You don't dislike him either. Since you're already married, just live a good life together. As long as he treats you sincerely, Mother will rest assured."

Hearing her mother's words, Feng Lingxi's heart was very uncomfortable, "Mother, you won't be alright, Xi'er will be able to cure your body."

Zhang gently patted her hand, "Xi'er, can you promise your mother one thing"

Feng Lingxi looked at her mother's eyes and nodded.

"Mother wants to leave the General's Mansion. Can you help Mother"

Feng Lingxi looked at her mother's resolute eyes in astonishment. After struggling for a while, she finally nodded.

"Xier, Mama wants to tell you something."

Feng Lingxi, after hearing her mother's words, her face stiffened slightly. Looking at her mother's pleading gaze, she was full of doubts.

"Mother, why do this"

Zhang shi held her hand, "Xi'er, if you trust your mother, just listen to me. Your mother no longer expects anything from your father. Staying at the General's Residence, I can't give you anything and would even become a burden."

“Mother, don’t say that. Before Xi'er recovered from her illness, didn’t Mother also devote so many years to her How could Xi'er blame Mother for thinking of her as a burden”

Zhang shook her head, "Mother, you only have one daughter. How could you think of her as a burden."

"Then why did you have to feign death and leave Wouldn't it be better to stay here with Xi'er"

"Xier, your mother would rather leave General's Mansion than continue living like this with your father."

This incident made her completely give up. She didn't want to stay here and be a burden on Xi'er. Leaving was the best help she could offer herself.

"Are you sure about this"

Zhang's eyes were firm, "Xi'er, Mother is very certain."

Feng Lingxi nodded, "Then Xi'er promises Mother, everything will be done according to your wishes."

Now she and the Empress are at odds. If her mother were truly gone from her side, no longer a threat, she could act without a care in the world. But she couldn't understand why her mother insisted on sending her so far away.

It's getting late, you should head back first. We'll have someone notify you once mother has made arrangements.

Feng Lingxi thought about something and hurriedly asked, "Mother, if something happened to you, what about your grandfather's side..."

Zhang heard this, a little confused. "Xi'er, how could you forget Your grandfather isn't in the capital at all. Now that your mother is gone, in this whole city, only the Fourth Prince can keep you company."

Feng Lingxi responded, "Xi'er understands."

She took over this body, and Zhang's memories never mentioned her family. Now that she is gone, she has become much more efficient and convenient in her actions.

"Xier will go back first, Mama, rest well. I'll have Xiaoli bring you medicine later."

Feng Lingxi bid farewell to her mother. As soon as she stepped out, she saw the Zhao family and Feng Yu Xi's mother and daughter walking towards her in the wind and rain. Upon seeing her, Feng Yu Xi's face was filled with joy, and she hurriedly greeted her with respect.

"Yu Xi had met the Fourth Princess."

Feng Lingxi looked at her face, white and flawless. In just a few days, she had recovered completely.

The injuries on Third Sister's face have all healed.

Feng Yu Xi Di nodded, gratefully saying, "Yu Xi has to thank Fourth Princess for the medicine. Now the injuries on my face have healed, and even the scars are invisible. It's as if I wasn't injured at all."

Feng Lingxi looked at her, addressing her as "Fourth Princess" with each word. This formal title made Feng Lingxi feel a distance between them.

"It's good that Third Sister is alright. I'm going to see Mother, she's sick."

Zhao hastily said, "Fourth Royal Princess, how is your elder sister's condition Is she any better The servant told the General that we have invited a doctor, but this kind of illness is difficult for a doctor to diagnose. After all, your elder sister is a woman, and doctors are all men. We can only trouble Fourth Royal Princess."

"I'll give her some medicine in a while, she needs to recuperate for a while."

Feng Lingxi looked at Zhao, "These days, it has been troublesome for the third aunt to take care of my father. Please don't let him go to my mother's side."

Zhao's face stiffened, "General, where you go is not something a servant like me can decide. However, I will try to persuade the General."

"Then thank you, Third Aunt."

Feng Lingxi glanced at Feng Yu Xi, “Third Sister, I still have something to do, so I'll go back first. Mother, I'll trouble Third Sister and Third Aunt to take care of her.”

"Don't worry, Your Highness, Yu Xi will take good care of the madam."

Feng Lingxi said thanks and left the General's Mansion with Xiao Li.

"Your Majesty, this Third Miss seems to have changed as a person. Although she still respects you, the feeling she gives me is different."

"Well, you tell me, what's different"

Feng Lingxi got into the carriage and, looking at Xiao Li who was frowning in thought, asked lightly.

"I can't quite put my finger on it, but I feel that the Third Miss isn't quite like herself anymore."don't worry about him. As for the rest, he will handle it himself.""Let me see."Feng Ling hurriedly took the letter. Lu Nian's letter wasn't long, but it clearly told them not to worry about him. He a...
